SEASON PASSES
Season Passes are non refundable and non transferable unless protected with Grand Targhee’s Pass Protection, see details below. Lost or stolen passes can be reprinted for $25.
2019/20 PASS PROTECTION POLICY
Grand Targhee Resort wants to see you skiing! We understand that the unpredictable happens, preventing you from utilizing your season pass at Grand Targhee Resort.
Grand Targhee Pass Protection coverage offers a credit for the cost of the unused portion of your Grand Targhee season pass. Grand Targhee Pass Protection is non-transferable and non-refundable. If you do not purchase Grand Targhee Pass Protection, you will not be eligible for a credit or refund toward your 2020/2021 season pass purchase and understand that passes are not transferable. Grand Targhee Pass Protection is approximately 6% of the cost of the pass at the time of purchase and can be added to a season pass up to 30 days after purchase, prior to the first use.
If you become medically unable to ski or ride, or if you are transferred out of the area (300 miles or more from Grand Targhee Resort) due to employment, a credit toward your next season pass will be determined based on the number of days on your pass was scanned during both Spring 2019 and Winter 2019/20 season. Refunds will not be given unless you will be unable to ski or ride in the future. Only the injured pass holder qualifies for a pass protection credit.
2020/2021 Season Pass Credit Value:
The season pass must have been used 10 or fewer times in the winter season(s) to qualify for a credit towards your 2020/2021 season pass purchase. This includes any use in the 2018/19 and 2019/20 season.
The amount credited towards your 2020/2021 season pass is based on the number of days the pass was used to ski/board at the ‘Friends and Family’ rate during both the Spring 2019 and Winter 2019/2020 seasons. The utilized days will be subtracted from the total value paid for your pass to determine your credit.
All requests must be received prior to March 1, 2020.
